Taking a cue from the Geographer Henri Lefebvre, David Harvey and Peter
Marcuse¹s work on the right to the city¹, the objective of this SI will
focus on how higher education practice can cross disciplinary, professional,
spatial and technological boundaries in order to make connections in a
holistic manner; and, in so doing help remake the right to the city in the
21st century along technologically smart, ecologically sustainable, socially
just and democratic lines.
Submission Due Date: 10 December, 2012
